The Silk Language

Silk is a lightweight cross-platform programming language which supports procedural programming and object-oriented programming.

It's simple, you can learn the entire syntax in 30 minutes.
It's small, the compiled binary is only 600K without any dependencies.
It's powerful, it can be integrated into any Text/HTML as server-side language. It's easy to extend Silk with libraries written in other languages.

Silk example:

/* 
The function to caculate fibonacci sequence 
parameter: n
return: fibonacci sequence 
*/
func Fibonacci(n)
{
    if (n == 0)
        return 0;
    else if (n <= 2)
        return 1;
    else
        return Fibonacci(n-1)+Fibonacci(n-2);//Recursion
}

main()
{
    //print the top 20 fibonacci sequence
    for(i=0;i<20;i++)
        print(Fibonacci(i));
}
